Invasive bacterial pathogens intervene at various stages and by various mechanisms with
the mammalian plasminogen/plasmin system. A vast number of pathogens express plasmin …

A failure of hemostasis and consequent formation of blood clots in the circulatory system can
produce severe outcomes such as stroke and myocardial infraction. Pathological …

Conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin inside blood vessels results in thrombosis, leading to
myocardial infarction and other cardiovascular diseases. In general, there are four therapy …

Myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke are the most frequent causes of death or disability
worldwide. Due to their ability to dissolve blood clots, the thrombolytics are frequently used …

Abstract Nattokinase, Streptokinase and Urokinase are novel fibrinolytic enzymes which are
isolated from Bacillus subtilis, β-haemolytic Streptococci and urine sample. The fibrinolytic …

This book describes the fibrinolytic enzymes of microbial origin that are able to dissolve
endogenous thrombi in vivo. The fibrinolytic enzyme streptokinase for example, is produced …

An imbalance in oxygen supply to cardiac tissues or formation of thrombus leads to
deleterious results like pulmonary embolism, coronary heart disease and acute cardiac …

Streptokinase (SK) binds to plasminogen (Pg) to form a complex that converts substrate Pg
to plasmin. Residues 1–59 of SK regulate its capacity to induce an active site in bound Pg by …
